I have mixed feelings about Jaime & Cara being Philiminated.  On the one hand, I had liked them -- or tried to like them -- during Season 14 and I still like Cara.  On the other hand, I don't really like Jaime.  But at least it isn't Ron & Christina -- they're still around!   :yess:

Belle Book


It will be interesting to see whether or not Ron+Chris fight like they did early on in TAR 12 or if they have learned their lesson and have stopped fighting like they did later in TAR 12. I wonder if Ron is in better shape now.

1. The first one was kind of Jen's fault. Although to be fair, Luke and Margie also reacted wrongly.
2. The second one, was the fault of both of them, Luke and Jen were running, Luke "accidentally" pushed Jen, and Jen got angry.
3. The bike incident, sounds kind of fudgy too me. Note, Luke is deaf. He couldn't hear the bell from Jen's bike. So he couldn't react in time. Of course, he could have taken evasive measures earlier, but we don't know. For all we know, Jen pushed Luke

How do i know, I've watched the episodes like five times.

I don't think it's wise to name call other members.
IMO, the rivalry between Margie\Luke and Kisha\Jen was mutual.

Agreed. You do have to remember that some of the racers do post on here- like Luke.

Just a little observation, of the TAR 14 teams in TAR 18, all of them were standing to the left of the run, up to the Finish Line mat.

Ugh. So CBS have decided to mislead everyone and feature teams in the promo for the upcoming season that haven't been reported to be racing. With Brook and Clarie taking the majority of the airtime.

I thought they would. I actually have read an article now where people are excited to see Brook & Claire back. Of course I had to break the news to them that its not true.

Yeah, this pretty much reminds me of what happened 4 years ago with Ken/Gerard & Jon/Al.  Pretty much both seasons were in the middle of taping during the finale of the preceding season.  Therefore, they really couldn't show anything from the All-Star seasons (if they wanted to and didn't feel the need to "tease" the home audience).  It wasn't like for TAR7 & TAR9 (during the Rob/Amber & return of the teams-of-two race) where they showed clips of the upcoming season, as both those races had ended prior to the AR6 & AR8 finales, respectively.

Anyway, the fact that they showed us racers that aren't on the season was typical.  However, like in 2006, I'm not saying a word to those that think certain racers will be on TAR18. I don't think it's as bad as last time where some of those most popular teams were not chosen but they ended up in the post-TAR10 clip anyway.
Every reality star is someone's favorite

Winning isn't everything, but it isn't considered nothing either. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a tribal council, a pit-stop, a boardroom, dimming of the lights, and so on

Well, they threw in at least one shot of about 26 teams (if I counted right), so it seems pretty clear that not all of them would be in Season 18. Although I agree with you that Brook and Claire got most of the airtime...but I think CBS had wanted them on S18 anyway.

Idk if this is important but on his facebook page Kent said : " Going to post some VERY interesting news this week over at: http://www.facebook.com/KentKaliber ......be sure to "LIKE" my page over there ;-)"

COULD THIS MEAN THEY WILL ANNOUNCE THE TEAMS EARLY ON!?

I went out to check on the rumored "something"  in this week's Entertainment Weekly


...............and got exactly ONE line.

In the 2011 Premieres section, there was a sidebar called "Also Returning"

Quote

Rumored to be returning are the Goths Kynt and Vyxsin, and the mother/deaf son duo of Luke and Margie.

Well, heck...I could have told them that!! :lol3:

You heard it here first folks, they might be returning! :) :) Well, that sucks. But on the bright side, I'm sure the cast'll be out in a few days...I hope!

It could be worse. Every time I search blogs, I see numerous reports that Maria and Tiffany and KevJumba and his Dad are returning this season.  :lol3:

At least they rumored about teams that are actually returning.   :tup:
